No one compels an ultra-orthodox Jew to travel in an ambulance on Yom Kippur, but this does not give the right to any Jew to prevent another person being helped by or helping MDA at any time.
The throwing of stones at people you disagree with is a local Arab custom eagerly adopted by certain sections of the Jewish community, and should be condemned in loud voices by our Rabbis. This hooliganism is un-Jewish, and most of us know this.
The Arab/Jewish riots in Acco over the Fast are surely the product of years of poor inter-communal relations, and are a disgrace to our country. The police are only a acting as a plaster over an untreated sore. |
